McIntosh C22 Preamp First Look and Restoration Plan
First look at a Mcintosh C22 preamp from about 1962-1963. The plan is to rebuild the power supply section first and then re-evaluate for further needs/upgrades. Sorry for the poor focus, I just started using a new camera and am in the process of getting the settings correct.

Marantz 2220 Restoration and Repair Part 2
Просмотров 4,6 тыс.7 лет назад
What started out as a typical recap and restoration on a vintage Marantz 2220 receiver, turned into a major repair complete with shorted output transistors and unstable driver stage. All ended well with a fully functioning and wonderful sounding machine that should last another 35 years!! See part 1 also.

JVC RX-307 Five dollar find and repair
Просмотров 29 тыс.8 лет назад
This is a JVC RX-307 receiver that I picked up at a local resale shop for 5 dollars with a sticker on it saying it had no sound output. This one I am guessing is from the late 80's or early 90's. It's not the vintage I typically go for but I figured for the price I could not go wrong and if nothing else it could provide parts for other projects. To my surprise, it powered right up and worked ju...

    I have a receiver that turns on and does not emit sound, if I increase the volume with the control it makes pac at each touch. I have no idea about electronics, but I was researching and it has transistors 2SB1429 first in green and 2SD2155 in black, I'm afraid they are burnt and are no longer available.

    I have the same preamplifier. I decided not to modify with different part. This preamplifier was made back to deliver certain tonal characteristic back when it was made with the parts available that period. If anyone changes parts, that particular sound charateristic will be gone for good. I know by upgrading with today's higher quality parts will make the preamp sounds much more sharp, clear, precise and overall better but that's not the original sound the originally creator intended back then. The only part I will consider modifying is upgrading the power supply with better rectifier and 3 cans of electrolytic capacitors for safety reason.

    How about 42 years without repairs? My Marantz has been just idling, diving a pair of very efficient speakers to concert levels (1 watt input=102 decibels @ 1 meter) Dust-off and de-oxide controls is all I've done and, oh yes, LED display lights to reduce internal heat and reduce power consumption. I'll keep you in mind, should I experience trouble. Knock on wood! Good video, though.

    (2:45) You can also see one of the infamous DCM aluminum core inductor coils here. Seems that aluminum does indeed have some slight ferrous properties. Just enough that Steve E. and crew would use it when an air core wasn't enough, but an iron core would have been way too much.

  • @CybershamanX
    @CybershamanX 3 года назад

    Yeah, they sure went nuts with that adhesive! I'm currently rebuilding two Time Window 1A crossovers which I will be mounting in shadowboxes so you can admire the engineering. The thing is, I have to use the original inductor coils because I think they were hand wound. It would be impossible to find ones off the shelf that would match exactly. But, man, that glue! Fortunately, the 1A crossovers aren't as crowded as the TF-700s were. It pops right off with a knife. I guess they saved a lot of labor by gluing every damn thing together (which they couldn't really do with the backs of the 700s), but it sure makes DCM speakers a PAIN to work on. Again, thanks for uploading this! :)

  • @CybershamanX
    @CybershamanX 3 года назад

    (4:17) It depends on what kind of driver it's connected to. If they used a different one later on that is probably what warranted the value change. Steve Eberbach and company pretty much flew by the seats of their pants back then, so it would be interesting to see if they swapped out a driver for a different one. Time Windows come to mind, when Phillips stopped making speaker drivers and they switched to Vifa (now Peerless/Tymphany). However, it's likely you won't notice such a small difference without actually measuring the frequency response, so it's all good. :) I had these exact speakers in the late 80s and even had the backs off. Very cool to see the inside again. Thanks for posting! :)

    A question, I just recapped the amp board on my 2220b. It powers up but if I turn up volume past 1/4 the protect relay trips out.i used the ELNA Silmic ll because I was assured they are low leakage? What did you use on your low leakage caps.

    • @OldTechFan
      @OldTechFan 6 лет назад

      Yes they are low leakage and suitable for your application. Often times after a recap other problems get uncovered. First double check your work and make sure all caps are in with correct polarity. Next I would check your supply voltages. If those are good I would suspect high dc offset due to aging differential pairs or even driver or pre driver transistors. A service manual is going to be needed and can be downloaded from the internet. Good luck.

    • @OldTechFan
      @OldTechFan 6 лет назад

      Also check your idle current. And as in my video make sure the bias diode is alive and does not have a bad connection.

These amps sound fine with a job well done ............i heard to often restored ( good old ) amplifiers sound bad after a recap with inadequate or huge oversized caps. The output capacitors if still good , i leave them to preserve the original sound . ( they are not under the same stress as the filter capacitors and often age well .) Thanks for sharing ....

      My bets are on shorted output transistors. Capacitors rarely cause dead shorts that blow fuses like that in solid state gear. Could also be bad power supply regulator or diode.
